There has been some debate about Project book and its future.
Not just how it is going to go or where, but the why of it.
The starter of this was Project writing, which was a tool I created.
Its use was to connect writers with their community, by letting the community interact with the Future of your Books, it was simply created to do just that, but it became more than to handle.
The designs and jist of it was that you had a System, which could pick up comments from the comment section and then price them as input for the mc to purchase with in story credit.
All of this based on mission and a challenge of the writer to input Community input into your Story, while it being still canon and legitimate to the Story and its timeline of events.
It was simple and easy, just a bit complicated. Over Time I started to notice the bugs and itches in my Arechnocadia Lore design. Noticing those glaring mistakes made me stop working on the System and instead try to fix them.
The Further I went the worst it got, from simply needing to redesign and but in hours to needing to sit outside in the sun for glaring 2 Hours just to pick up on the “AHH” moment, of when I finally just understood the Problem.
Yes, just understanding the problem, not fixing it, it was not just in Project writing. It was everywhere.
Just to mention a few: The 5 Major parts of Arechnocadia were before just 2 parts: Lore and the Company. Over time I split them to the appropriate size, this does not just include Arechnocadia itself, it also includes.
1. My Book "Dungeon Controll", in which I needed to back up to its inspiration, which was the Game Risk of Rain 2 and a Challenge I never to this day was able to complete. To the inside and Lore of the Story itself, being incomplete and kinda not fitting to the Arechnocadia Universe. As those Stories I have written were major Pillars of Arechnoadias Lore, making the pressure of writing them further even more stressful and less enjoyable.
So, I quit writing them, "Dungeon Controll" missing its first premier and all the input of its story is there just not written as it would take too much time, The Swordsman who want to be a Healer, an inspiration to solo Kill just with less Kill and Worldbuilding and more just power fantasy, with no substance. Tried for months, but nothing gave it the flare as the first Story draft did. Lastly Arechnocadia the in-depth Lore Guide, the one and only Perspective to the inner working of the Omniverse, was passed down from concept drafts to concept drafts till it finally ended with The Story it was now. Third Chapter not available as the Future and where it was going was still hazy. So finally coming back to Project writing and you can see the same things, that hazy niss of when I wrote Wing about the Idea. It was not quite there, and the idea was somewhere but not quite sorted.
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
And so, it came to Project Book a try to the Idea I propose, without the system of Arechnocadia in the Story. A simple put in guideline to a Story and not a connector.
Now the Future of it all became even more striking over Time, as I started creating the Project and more. From it just being something to make people write better and be more motivated, to a groundwork for every Story available, while still being adaptable to every Story in existence through its widespread Lore and design, it can handle almost any task.
Now what?
It is still out there and the Project itself is also finished now it only needs its finishing touch and that’s where the Future comes into place.
I did not just take this lying down, no I tried something even grander than before.
So, let me explain some of my ideas.
So, what is a Book?
If you can answer that question, then you already know what Project book covers and so it all started.
First Contestant and Idea, why not create a Book out of Art, like all those Picture Books telling Stories more through Pictures then words.
This led to one of my most spent Sundays of the Year, in which I picked an Artist and tried to write a Story backwards, in which instead of writing the beginning I start with the ending.
Taking all those already beautifully crafted characters and putting them into a Story, fitting the art and inspiration they came from.
This all came glaring down to one factor, the factor of it being one art Style, one perspective of an artist retelling an already existing Story in their own way.
This did not just create an original Story, but also an original World of kind.
What does this mean?
I created a whole fucking World out of some Instagram Pictures, in the spam of 5 Hours.
Like it was a Lot of Fun, but it also told me that a Book does not need to have a Story, the World itself can tell the Story just that easily.
By creating a World, you already create a Story and, in that way, already create a Book.
I will take this as a learning experience in the book making genre, but also a step to see further, by allowing people to not just take part in Story writing for Project book to be done through a written media, but also allowing others to do it in their own way.
So that’s the Future of Project book, my first try to expand the genre and see where it leads.
Next up will be a deeper insight into my first Idea of this, the Community Event or Project I called it, in which I took the created World and wrote an Email to the Artist and ask if they are interested to join or do a Community Project with me.
